Doug DeMuro gives the 2016 Porsche Boxster Spyder an enthusiastic 93/100 rating, praising it as one of the most thrilling modern sports cars despite limited recognition. The car excels in performance with the 991 911 Carrera S engine that enthusiasts wanted for 20 years, plus 911 Turbo S steering and upgraded brakes, while its rarity—only 2,500 units made globally—gives it strong collectibility value and distinctive design touches like the double-hump rear and exclusive 20-inch wheels. The main caveat is the complicated manual roof operation, which DeMuro calls "ridiculous," and the livability score (71/100) reflects some comfort compromises, though the suspension is actually more compliant than the harsher Cayman GT4. This car is for enthusiasts willing to overlook roof annoyances in exchange for rare, top-down driving thrills with genuine performance credentials.
